Calling any HW3 retrofitted vehicles (rooted)

[SCP85]

Has anyone added HW3 to their rooted HW1 cars? My question is once up and running has anyone actually tried reaching out to Tesla and paying for FSD to work? What do you think their response would be if we are actually willing to pay and make it legit?

A HW1 car doesn't have the necessary cameras for anything beyond AP1.

Yes I know that. Im currently upgrading my AP1 car to AP3, getting autopilot to work is no big deal. My question was after AP3 and basic autopilot is working what is the likelihood that Tesla would actually sell me FSD?

Without the required cameras, why would you want to buy FSD even if you could?

If I understood him correctly, he's adding the required cameras...

I have the required cameras. I added them all in

@SCP85 - any updates? Adding the required cameras seems relatively straightforward. Basically:
update
1. upper windshield tri-camera
2. full b-pillar glass with cameras
3. side repeater cameras
Most difficult of the physical swap would be the FSD computer swap and related wiring/optical cables.

But the X/unknown factor is when you have it all together the software VIN locks and Tesla mothership - which is where your original question plugs in.

Great job to whoever done it.
Do u have to replace/add a lot of harness for cameras?
I've been thinking about this upgrade but obviously without much software support it's not very attractive...
